    Default Bird Flu Pandemic

    The document says a large outbreak that began in Asia would be likely to reach the United States within “a few months or even weeks,” and that more than 1.9 million people could die in the worst case scenario, the Times said.

    The rest at http://msnbc.msn.com/id/9627269/

    1.9 million people? Thats a freaking lot.

    that would suck if the flu comes to the u.s because the price of chicken,duck etc.... would go up like crazy.

    1.9 million?... aint there like a million people in ATL... shit its not that big if its just like a city or two of people... yeah it sux... but it aint like end of the world or nothing. odds arent that high... 1.9 million divided by the total in US = ~0.6% Chance that you are one of the affected(worst case scenario)... odds are in our favor, lol... yeah im bored.

    ha and theyll probably raise gas prices along too for the hell of it. Any excuse it seems.

    In the end though that kinda thing tends to affect those with weak immune systems (the elderly, children, and those with diseases currently). Being a healthy "adult" im not really worried to much about my own ass.

    anyway... when its your time its your time... Aint shit you can do about it aside from make sure you have no regrets.
